Cohen Milstein Sellers & Toll recently spun its skills and experience into two new practice areas and a merger to expand a multimillion-dollar winning formula. “We’ve tried to grow in ways that are organic, from areas in which we had already accomplished some success and not to just add on areas that are foreign to us,” said Joseph Sellers, chairman of the firm’s executive committee.
The class action firm has added a public-client practice, working with state attorneys general and other public sector clients, and a whistleblower-False Claims Act practice for a total of 13 practices. Just this year, it merged with the small but potent Leopold Law in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla., which brought practices in products liability, catastrophic injury and other complex litigation, with Cohen Milstein offering multiparty-litigation tools in return. Those steps, Sellers said, allow the 82-lawyer firm to draw on “the same sets of skills and knowledge we’ve been litigating in a host of areas elsewhere.”
